My Father handed down his childhood .22 rifle to me when i was about 8 years old. Of course, I only used it under his supervision. The last time I ever saw that rifle was when I was about 15. I'm not sure what happened to it. I think a cousin or other younger shooter in the extended family ended up with it. I'd like to know the model so I can try to find another one. Here is what I know: It was a Harrington & Richardson .22 semiautomatic. It had a brass tubular magazine that was inserted through the butt of the rifle. It had a thick butt plate with a recess in it for the magazine knob. To load, you pushed in on the knob, turned it counter clockwise and pulled the tube almost all the way out, and then loaded the gun through the side of the butt stock. I believe the butt plate and trigger guard were made of plastic but I could be wrong about that. There were two small parallel grooves milled into the receiver to accept a small set of .22 clamp on scope mounts. I saw a gun at a gun show this weekend that I thought was the same model...but it turned out to be a Mossberg. But it was otherwise as described above. Can anyone help me identify what model .22 I had??
